    Don Castor (1B)

    http://www.simgamingnetwork.com/blb/...ayer_6910.html

    He had a 7 or 8 for avoid K's, was a massive home run threat, won the DL Stout Slugger and then fell off the planet.

    Looking back, his decline was mildly comical (sorry UMD).

      To me he killed your OF. Castor no doubt took a hit like a year after you traded for him ,but RF Abelando Hernandez strange -2 contact drop (Yes it was -2) Amri 'Skipper' Sau also taking a hit AND BOTH after extension were signed was a little over the top.

      One guy dropping sure its life, two guys ok unlikely but bad luck. THREE GUYS , All outfielders and oh two right after extensions....................

                  Fascinating.

                  The Jerry Daly contract extension alone was outward proof of wrongdoing. I sent him a PM as soon as the contract was signed and asked him "what witchcraft is this?" and he gave me an answer that could have conceivably been plausible at face value, but not at all possible if you understand the financial engine intimately. So, nothing behind the scenes, nothing behind the curtain, that contract alone was grounds for dismissal. It just happened to coincide with the Jistic/Matt/et al bombshell of injury editing.

                      Lol, THE CONTRACT WAS IMPOSSIBLE. What really gave it away was no news in the HTML or in Game like "Star OF extended" it was like it never happened. Figure Clay would of at least made something up in the news.

                      Poor Jistic heard an earful that sim.

                      Looking back its amazing how Clay's world was crashing all around him. Does seem he almost wanted to get caught.

                        The scary thing is the last host we were with was in his name so he literally could have burnt it to the ground. It switched back to my name when we moved to the current host which was only a month or two before shit hit the fan.

                          Did you have to get some money back from him??? Was it the donations?

                            Im sure he thought he was smarter than everyone. Not so much trying to get caught. His arrogance shows in his signature where he states he has "to many rings to count". First off, he uses the wrong "too" and then lets us know he cant count very high.

                              He sent the donations back. We used it to pay 2014-2015 hosting fees.

                                Pawtucket was one of those teams at the time young and talented.(91-96) Did he do anything to Pawtucket? You know, I dont think so. Its probably due perhaps to Jistic having my back. Jistic had a history of calling him out. Game 7 in the 91 Brewmaster Cup might of been the only thing since it was so so weird to see who the game chose to start. We fought a 119 win team tooth and nail so couldnt be to depressed.

                                I use to deal with his statements of "Your teams talented players has plateaued where my players are thriving" and use to scratch my head as to why considering my players where in they're prime where his were on the wrong side of 30, but thats about it.
